Cooking tips

  • Instead of cutting tofu neatly with a knife, use a spoon to break off large chunks—the rougher surface helps the sauce cling better.
  • When sautéing pork neck with seasonings, avoid high heat to prevent burning; cook slowly so the flavors infuse into the meat’s natural fat.

Recommended for

  • Those seeking a spicy, deeply flavored stew for a hearty meal.
  • Home cooks wanting to make a rich stew using minimal basic Korean seasonings.
  • Fans of hearty jjigae recipes packed with meat and tofu.
